Kingston based harpist Gillian Tingay

will be performing in a concert to raise funds for Kingston charity Momumtum at the

Landmark Arts Centre in Teddington on 3rd October 2010 at

7pm.

Gillian, who was awarded a scholarship

to study with Marisa Robles at the Royal College of Music at the age

of 15, has taken time out from her busy schedule to perform for

Momumtum.

In addition the concert will also

feature Soprano Sophi Bevan, Mezzo-Soprano Jean Rigby and Baritone

Ashely Holland who will be performing operatic favourites. Plus violinists Juliette and Tanja Roos

from the Yehudi Menuhin School in Surrey will be performing

accompanied on piano by their mother Ilana Roos.

The

money raised will go directly towards supporting children

and their families

who have cancer and life-limiting conditions, in Surrey and South

West London. Momentum also raises funds for projects

in the Paediatric oncology departments at Kingston Hospital, St.

George’s in Tooting, West Middlesex and St.

Peter’s in Chertsey.

If you can't go the

concert but want to donate then you can sponsor Tudor Morris, who was

helped by Momentum when he was diagnosed with cancer at the age of

13. He is doing a 1000 Mile Bike ride to raise funds as part of Team

TROTT. More information on

his quest can be found here.

Tickets for the

concert, which cost £17 and £22, can be obtained either from the

LandMark Arts Centre on 020 8977 7558

or Momentum's Office on 020 8974 5931
